The right-sized UPS for demanding business-critical applications
The APC Symmetra PX 96/160 is a world-class, high-efficiency power protection system designed to costeffectively provide redundancy and high levels of availability while simplifying right-sizing of your data center. The Symmetra PX 96/160 kW UPS is a true modular system, made up of hot-swappable power, battery, intelligence, and bypass modules that facilitate easy installation and efficient service. This architecture can scale in increments of 16 kW up to 160 kW as demand grows or higher levels of availability are required in your data center. Designed exclusively for the Symmetra PX 96/160, the optional Integrated 160 kW Modular Power Distribution Unit combines a modular power distribution unit, battery cabinet, and maintenance bypass panel into a single enclosure, ensuring safe expansion of the power distribution system without hot work, without scheduling downtime, and without expanding the UPS footprint. The Symmetra PX 96/160 is built into standard APC NetShelter SX racks, aesthetically promoting quick installation and agility in a changing environment while minimizing the solution footprint to a mere 1.28 square meters for the Symmetra PX 96 kW or 1.92 square meters for the Symmetra PX 160 kW. The highly manageable Symmetra PX 96/160 features self-diagnostic capabilities, increasing overall data center reliability. Standardized, factory-assembled modules mitigate the risk of human error during installation or routine maintenance procedures. Suitable in small and medium data centers or high density zones of larger data centers, the Symmetra PX 96/160 delivers the efficient, modular, high-availability power protection that your business-critical applications require.

Modular power distribution

APC modular power distribution units eliminate the need to schedule downtime to add a breaker. Power distribution modules plug into a touch-safe backplane that shields users from dangerous amperage. The power distribution system simplifies power management by including output metering, branch current/circuit monitoring, and auto-detection by the StruxureWare suite of management options. Multiple power ratings and power cord lengths for low to high power guarantee compatibility and convenient installation
